As what remains of tropical system Helene moves closer today, our wind will ramp up with gusts near 30mph at times. With that strong NE wind staying steady through today into tomorrow we can expect rough conditions on Lake Michigan. There is a Beach Hazards Statement in effect. We should stay dry today but there is a slight chance for showers on Saturday into early Sunday morning with the most likely areas being the far southeast counties. A brief cool down next week to usher in October but otherwise well above average temperatures persist.
